The Fourth Kind's Review

I wish I was abducted by aliens while I was in the cinema. The movie started by having Milla Jovovich telling us that she would be portraying the role of Dr. Abigail Tyler throughout the film. Dr. Tyler is a widow who claims that her husband was murdered in the middle of the night by "unknown" beings. So then the mystery of the movie would be - who or what killed her husband that night (and you would never have thought "what" killed him at the end of the movie). The director, Olatunde Osunsanmi, tries his best to make the movie look as realistic as possible. But how can we actually feel that it's real, when most of the scenes from the movie were half-split screens (sometimes even into Quadrants) comparing between a scene from the movie (which is fake - duh!), and a video footage which they created (which is uh....also fake!). A couple of scenes in the movie was somehow irrelevant to the story whatsoever, but it's not a big of a deal since this movie would still be a failure without it. This movie was suppose to be better than Paranormal Activity, since the budget was higher, but it fails on every level. I know every director has their first try which I could not blame, but I'm afraid Osunsanmi might not have a successful future ahead of him. After watching this movie, even extra terrestrial believers would start disbelieving in aliens.

Overall: 2.5 / 10
